Re: Anthropoid

From a historical perspective, Operation daybreak is quite badly done piece of work on this subject. The movie is full of nonsenses and frankly it is not so good as film either. Atentát from 1964 (The Assassination  -  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0174476/ ) is still far way better than Daybreak and it´s considered be a classic, but  both Atentát and Operation daybreak (especially this) reflected time of their shooting, i.e. during the communist regime in Czechoslovakia, thereby both film were more or less influenced ideologically.

Anthropoid is not the most perfected work too, as a movie it may seems to be incoherent, but overall it´s a decent movie on this subject and due to cooperation with local historians from Military history institute it´s finally plausible interpretation of the events, particularly in details of some situations, naturally mainly in the scenes of assassination of Heydrich or final dramatic and effective battle in the church (although for curiosity. In reality, parachutists still were not armed with sub-machine guns there. They resisted for hours only with pistols and remaining bombs, which is even more impressive but you know for theatricality and time purposes).

Re: Anthropoid

Shut up Zvcca, there will never be a better emotionally evoking, better soundtracked or shot, or acted version of this story, dude, they filmed it in the locations, made minimal adjustments, plus the fact that that church shootout is actually for its time, the most cutting edge squib and blanks shootout scene ever filmed up to then, it was considered the most realistic at its time.  also its known with pistols because that's what they were found with for suicide at the end, but it was loaded with resistance drop caches, the ones in the basement too were using stens, I don't think that much attention would be brought, or such resistance mounted only on pistols

Re: Anthropoid

And that's it, for its time...

Anyway, although some sources, particularly in archives in Germany are ambiguous on this, both reports (although affected) from SS-Brigadeführer Karl von Treuenfeld, who was in command of charging SS troops there, and from leader of the Gestapo office in Prague Hans Ulrich Geschke (not sure about Panwitz report though), dont indicate something about drop caches or sub-machines guns, much less stens, in possession of parachutists during the battle in the church. There was most certainly one Sten gun, the one which was used during assassination attempt and which jammed and was thrown away on the spot of assassination. But nothing similar for the church firefight. Do not forget, the church was provisional hideout for them and the same day they were planned to be transfered outside the Prague, it was not meant to be their Alamo with tons of loadout.

But as always, none of us were in the church back then, so hard to tell how they really resisted and with what. Maybe they used enemy weapons and grenades too, if they have such chance, who knows. Fact is, three man on the choir managed hold on against better equipped enemy and outnumbered for 2 hours at least (which reports say). Remaining four resisted for a further period in the crypt with small calibers. That´s surely respect worthy.

Re: Anthropoid

1970's. late, but compared to everything else up to then, the best shootout scene for effects to date, also reports seem to confirm at least for the ones hiding in the crypt, sten guns were used, I'm sure they had gear, maybe not an alamo, but a standard few boxes of resistance drop equipd, smart operatives always bring and store such things just in case it will come to a fight, if they get to leave, it will go to the next group or the partizans

Re: Anthropoid

This old movie flare was very good. I like the scene in the church where someone in the first floor thinks that a wooden fence can be used as cover, like in BF42... how could this nub survive so long? There were like 10 Soldiers shooting on him. Alright, they were rather bots than soldiers.
But all in all the movie was ok. I watched Passengers after, this movie was more interesting.
